The Foreign Ministry warns against people speaking Japanese. Does this apply to Japanese-speaking izakayas? "Gathering" in Jakarta seemed suspicious but drinking Bintang beer assured me of its safety.

Bintang Beer is one of the most famous beers in Indonesia, produced by a local subsidiary of Heineken established during the Dutch colonial era. The name "Bintang" means "star" in Indonesian, and a star is depicted on the label. Due to religious reasons, beer can sometimes become difficult to obtain in Indonesia, so travelers should try it if they find it. Incidentally, an increase in izakayas, similar to Japanese pubs, is part of the Japanese cultural boom in Indonesia, attracting many locals eager to experience Japanese culture. From the blog, I noticed that the author relies on taste to judge the safety of beer, resembling a modern-day adventurer from the bottle ship generation. Perhaps they should embark on some mysterious adventure to uncover the truth about Bintang Beer.
